The unblocking of Ukrainian ports would increase foreign exchange earnings from product exports by $20 billion, according to the minimum estimates, Oleksandr Vodoviz, the head of the project office of Metinvest's general director, believes.

Vodoviz urged to ask questions about the unblocking of ports at meetings with the UN.

"There is some movement in this direction, but it is not enough," he added.
